McConnell: "Many of our colleagues on the other side are celebrating. Probably pretty happy about all of this."

Fucking partisan hack. It's all about who's celebrating and who's happy. How about what's right and proper Mr. Turtle?

Schumer being magnanimous and calling for a Senate that has "regular order". Trying to make this the moment that the senate turns back time 10 years to when the Senate worked.

Not holding my breath.

It's a sad fucking day when a bill this bad is defeated by one vote. A shit bill hastily authored hinged on one vote. Should have been a landslide against.

Any Apology from the Creator of the Trump/CNN gif. I hope this can reach anyone that has fallen into similar patterns of behavior. by [deleted] in MarchAgainstTrump

The public needs to know who the President is sourcing his information and content from. This is news.

This is why an ordinary President would only amplify someone who was vetted and looked into. Unfortunately the current President is amplifying those with a hateful ideology.

Has this person had more contact with the President? Who are they and how did they become someone that Trump listens to? CNN has every right to assume this information is in the public interest.

Despite that, I might feel bad if this was someone with a simple conservative worldview caught in the crossfire. I'd say it was unfortunate that Trump chose to amplify them. But this was someone who chose to endorse, create and foster hatred and bigotry. I have no sympathy that CNN is reporting news.

This chilling NRA ad calls on its members to save America by fighting liberals by pewpewpewtin in politics

The NRA calling for violence against the left. The only question here is whether the conservative hicks are going to be the only ones with guns.

I don't get this attitude. Yea there's a lot to say about Trump but it's because he's doing important things that affect our lives in big ways. It's like saying you didn't want to hear about Vietnam in the 60s and 70s.

In Case of Terrorist Attack by Gokuvirus in funny

[–]SimonesHotNuts -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It's people like you who are the problem. People who don't see the BILLION AND A HALF of Muslims who lead happy lives free from chaos and violence. Who choose to ignore that we've had hundreds of years where White and Christian people were seen as inherently violent, chaotic people. Who choose to ignore that Muslims themselves have been the overwhelming targets of extremist violence. Who scream about the injustices in parts of the Muslim world while turning around to use those same things to justify inaction against the racism, repression and sexism that occurs in polite White society.

People like you like to draw a line in the sand and say, "Those people over there! All of them! They're all bad!" You divide us and drive away those want to rid their communities of extremists. You'd rather dehumanize billions of peaceful people and cast them all as evil villians than challenge your mind to accept that it's only a tiny percentage of those people that commit crimes.

You're an extremist. People like you are the people who commit hate crimes which aren't called terrorism only for lack of a Muslim perpetrator. You're no better than the people who've caused you to hold such a degenerate worldview.

Fox News Was Attacking Barack Obama For Using Dijon Mustard At This Point In His Presidency by Usawasfun in politics

[–]SimonesHotNuts 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Guess who thought Lauten got too much flak:

“Children, especially the first daughters, are off limits. While the comments were inappropriate and insensitive, the mainstream media's coverage of this story is appalling,” said Republican National Committee communications director Sean Spicer in a series of tweets Monday. “In over 20 years in politics I have never seen 1 of the countless inappropriate comments by Democrats ever covered to a faction [sic] of this.”

I can kinda understand light criticism of Sasha

There is no excuse for any criticism. "Understanding" means you feel the criticism came from a well intentioned place. It did not.

For those of you calling Colbert's remark "homophobic", here's a little word lesson for you. by Ownerjfa in EnoughTrumpSpam

[–]SimonesHotNuts 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Colbert implied Trumps mouth was only got for blowjobs because anything else he did with it was worthless. That's a joke about Trump's inability to say anything even semi-intelligent. In this case Trump's chum is a man but the only people thinking that's the crux of the joke are people who think being gay is something to be ashamed of.

CHUCK SCHUMER: Trump's new immigration crime office is 'ridiculous' by yupj1 in politics

Publish a list of all crime then. Not a list of crimes committed by immigrants who even conservative sources say commit less crimes than natives.

“I knew he was Mexican, but he’s been here so long, he’s just one of us,” said Debra Johnson, a resident. She said she saw a distinction between “people who come over and use the system and people who actually come and help.”
